7 Rules for Cultivating a Happy Mindset: With happy thoughts and actions, you can feel happy. Never try to revenge your enemies, otherwise you will deeply hurt yourself. Don’t be unhappy because others are ungrateful—realize it’s a very natural thing. Count your blessings instead of overthinking your worries. Don’t imitate others. Let’s rediscover ourselves and stay true to our nature. When life gives us lemons, let’s try to make lemonade. Be interested in others and forget yourself. Do one good thing every day that can bring a smile to someone else’s face.
3 Ways to Not Let Others’ Criticism Make You Unhappy: Unfair criticism is often a disguised flattery. Remember, no one will kick a dead dog. Keep your broken umbrella closed to prevent the rain of criticism from flowing down your neck. Keep a record of your own foolish mistakes and criticize yourself.
This is one of Dale Carnegie’s most influential books, a sequel to his masterpiece, How to Win Friends and Influence People. The difference is that How to Win Friends and Influence People mainly teaches people basic principles for overcoming worries, while How to Enjoy Life focuses more on guiding people on how to achieve happiness. In this book, Carnegie explains that eliminating wrong thoughts and behaviors and filling the mind with happiness is more important than removing tumors and sores from the body. The first three parts of the book discuss how to "cultivate a happy mindset," "not let others' criticism make you unhappy," and "take control of your work and money." The fourth part features dozens of celebrities sharing their personal experiences of how they achieved happiness. In short, this is a book that guides people on the path to a happy life.
